*I might rename this article to Foxfire as it may be closer to the original name.  Foxfire is part of Japanese folklore (kitsune-bi).--[[User:Jumper|Jumper]] 11:28, 11 October 2009 (EDT)

火の粉 (hinoko) which means sparks is another name I came about.--[[User:Platform|Platform]] 20:49, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
I know this is an old discussion, but for reference, ''How to Win at Donkey Kong'' has this to say right on the first page:
:''Donkey Kong is a trademark of Nintendo of America, Inc.''
:''CONSUMER GUIDE and PUBLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL LTD.''
:''are neither affiliated with nor have any contractual''
:''relationship with Nintendo of America, Inc. concerning''
:''publication of this book nor has Nintendo of America, Inc.''
:''authorized the publication of this book.''
If this is the only source for "Foxfire" then perhaps it should be deleted. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 10:42, 13 July 2018 (EDT)
:I'm not even seeing "foxfire" be used on the page anywhere. If the book is unofficial entirely, I'm for the redirect deletion. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 10:51, 13 July 2018 (EDT)
::So am I. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 10:53, 13 July 2018 (EDT)
:::The same text is also repeated on the back cover, so it's made pretty clear that it's unofficial. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 11:00, 13 July 2018 (EDT)
::::Redirect's been deleted. Keeping the talk page for future reference in case someone tries to make it again. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:04, 13 July 2018 (EDT)
Foxfire is an official name from the [https://www.mobygames.com/game/pc-booter/donkey-kong/cover-art/gameCoverId,598451/ IBM-PC (MS-DOS)] and [https://youtu.be/Nwx9AgdYWbk?t=268 Apple II] ports. Should the redirect be restored?--[[User:Platform|Platform]] ([[User talk:Platform|talk]]) 06:17, July 14, 2021 (EDT)
:I think it should have been kept even if it wasn't official, for search purposes. That's what a redirect is mainly for; it's not like the name was used on the page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:26, July 14, 2021 (EDT)
